Thanks to everyone that came. Sure was alot of nice saws there. Even the vintage saws were awesome. Thanks to Kevin for keeping track of times and to Brad and anyone that took pics and video. What I do is only a small part of hosting a GTG. I've always been able to rely on you guys to complete the day.

Just wanted to give another TY out to Earl, Mart and my Wifey. Earl helped me alot in preparations for the event and of course Jo and Mart did the cooking. Sorry about the grill snafu. Even the best laid plans sometimes go eyry.

Very nice and thanks to the efforts of Mr and Mrs Poor and the fine hospitality as is always the case in that household and worthy of mention  .Thank you all kindly .

There was a nice collection of parts etc for sale  .I think Fred must have brought about a half a ton with him .I had head in butt else I'd have rounded up enough .404 by 063 chisel chain to make a 123 driver loop for the 084.

That aside I landed some neat stuff very reasonabley priced including the bones of an 042 Stihl which has parts as scarce as hens teeth .Now I can totally restore mine  to the point when it came out of the factory some 30 years ago . ;D

A couple after thoughts .I wish I had taken the time to help out a few but I was up to my azz in alligators with saw problems .

Danged old big saws sit all year and only get fired maybe twice the whole year .You think they're going to run but they seem to get fickle in the eleventh hour so to speak . >:(

I think I could have tuned those old reed valve Macs that one fellow had and possibley that red S-25 Poulan but I didn't want to seem like a wise azz so I didn't jump right in .

I kind of cut my eye teeth so to speak on reed valve Macs although their perfomance didn't show much that time .However at the next go round where ever that is if someone needs assistance I always have a screwdriver and am willing ,y'all just have to ask .Just the way I am . ;)

It looks like all of the saws really ran well.  I am still trying to figure out who built what saws, and what saws ran stock.
